CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19) LONDON UK - SUPERMARKET MADNESS
The supermarket shelves in London have been destroyed as the panic buying sets in during the coronavirus crisis. Shoppers are leaving shelves bare of toilet paper, pasta and tinned foods as they prepare for potentially having to self-isolate due to the spread of COVID-19.
Major stores including Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Asda and Ocado signed up to a letter urging customers to shop responsibly and ensure supplies are shared out fairly.

Stag, Wedding and Honeymoon....
I have played like 6k hands this month which is pretty laughable :) I have a legit reason though, I was busy getting married so took some time out..!!
It all started with my Stag in London. A few of us hit Laser Wars at a place called Bunker 51. After that we hit the town via the Partybus which is basically a nightclub on wheels that takes you to 5 other clubs along the way. This is the Stag night crew:
It was then the big day and I married my other half of 4 and a half years, Claire. This is us during the picture shoot just after the vows:
A couple of days later we flew out to the luxury 5* Azul Sensatori Resort which is in Mexico just 20 minutes south of Cancun. This is the place:
So, I'm back now to hit the tables again and chase that 200k VPP mielstone which is going to be tough as I need to get hands in everyday while working full time and trying to have a social life.!!
See you on the tables.

Fat, Sick And Nearly Dead
I recently bought a nutrition extractor called nutirbullet after watching a few YouTube videos. It was a total random act which I thought would help me add a little extra good stuff to my diet.
Since then I have done a bit more research of come across some very interesting clips that I think could change my life. If you have ever had any weight or health issues then check out these films:

New Ride - BMW 320d M Sport Highline
So the new whip is here. I had budgeted around $10k-$15k but went a bit overboard and ended up dropping $25k on this piece of metal with wheels. Oh Well :)
The drive is pretty awesome, fast, powerful and very fuel efficient.
Some nice cruising ahead..!!
For the stats guys:
Need to find a way to recoup some of this cash :)

5 Time Supernova And Out........ Goodbye Poker
Just hit nova for the fifth year in a row..!!
Sadly I have also decided to pretty much quit poker and resurrect my previous career as an analyst/ accountant.
There are a few reasons for my choice, mainly a need to get a mortgage (a legit one I mean) which is not feasible as a poker player. I also miss the working atmosphere. Grinding poker can be a bit too quiet and isolated at times. I still love the game but not as much as when I was a recreational fish. I look forward to becoming a part time spewy whale again and tormenting the regs!!
I will play maybe every other day or so in the evenings for maybe an hour and a little on weekends but my daytimes will be spent job hunting and eventually working once I score a job. I have already had a couple if interviews and met a few recruitment consultants so hopefully I will find a role within a couple of months.
A big thanks to all of you that have followed me and supernova125, especially all of you that have commented. The blog is now over 4 years old and was certainly a fun thing to do. I am not sure if I will post again but maybe I will just throw out a monthly review and an odd hand history here and there, who knows...
I am still around on email, Twitter and Skype for those who would like to keep in touch.
All the best..!!
